Permethrin is a synthetic relative of natural pyrethrins; however, it is much more stable on your pet and more active on insects. Both permethrin and natural pyrethrins work by disrupting the insect’s nervous system. Products containing permethrin should NEVER be used on cats or ferrets as they are sensitive to this compound.
